What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's?


Many on Audiogon agree the 1970's was the best decade for popular music. Whether it was the quality of songwriting or the diversity of music. The decade also produced many unforgettable 1 hit wonders. My personal favorite is Afternoon Delight by Starland Vocal Band, what's yours?

Three ;)
-Du (Peter Maffay)
-I Just Want To Be Your Everything (Andy Gibb)
-Emotion (Samantha Sang)
Nobody mentioned yet.. but from my part of the world, hits like..

-Do That To Me One More Time (Captain & Tenille)
-Please Don't Go (KC & The Sunshine Band)
-Love Is In The Air (John Paul Young)
-First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Roberta Flack)

Are some that certainly made their marks during the '70's--while not exactly a one hit wonder, but..
Miss those great eras, the '70s & '80s.
Ahh yes... soul/disco!

-Funkytown (Lipps Inc.)
-Le Freak (Chic)
-Let's Groove (Earth, Wind & Fire)
-I Love The Nightlife (Alicia Bridges)
-You To Me Are Everything (The Real Thing)

Are few that will transport me right back to those fun filled groovy days.
I know. Neither was The Real Thing.

-Just An Illusion (Imagination)

Not sure if this too will qualify. But to me them are just too darn hot to miss out on when listing--70's Soul/Disco hits.
Cool.. thanks for the link!

-All I Am (Heatwave)
